#Best of DIY & an Easy DIY Antique Style School Chart

Buckle your seat belt, because today I’m teaming up with an amazing group of 24 other bloggers, and we’ve all created projects that YOU can DIY as well!

Are you ready to see MY project for this event?!!!

It is the easiest project in the world, is super inexpensive to make, and will usher Spring into your home!

We’ve all been eagerly awaiting Spring, and I am overjoyed that it’s finally arrived. To celebrate, I want to bring some spring indoors, while I’m waiting for my yard to green up. I’ve had an antique style school chart hanging in my entryway for several years, so I decided it was time to swap it out for some new school charts that are perfect for Spring.

It’s THE simplest project in the world, and the only supplies needed are:

1. Get copies made – I wanted my school charts as large as possible – without spending a fortune, so I had them printed as ledger size pages (17″x11″) at Staples for about $1.20 each (there are 6 printables to choose from here).

2. Stain wood stir sticks

3. Hot glue wood strips to top and bottom of each print, then glue twill tape on each side of the top.

How easy is that?!! Aside from the time it takes to get the prints made, this is a 5 minute project!

I have many more antique book pages, and more than 50 antique maps that would also make wonderful school charts. You’ll find them all HERE.

Angie,
I LOVE your Antique Style School Charts and those eggs are perfect for Easter being right around the corner. Thank you again so much for coordinating this fabulous Best of Diy Party and have a wonderful weekend, Lisa at Concord Cottage

Angie, Thanks so much for including me in this fabulous group of diy’ers! And for all the work you put into this. You really made it easy for all of us and I am very very thankful!!!
I am making these little school chart egg pictures. What a delightful and creative idea! And they are sooooo easy to make! Pinning and featuring your project on fb! Thanks, again!

Well, that was well worth the wait and anticipation, I must say! Your sweet egg charts are absolutely the perfect way to bring spring cheer inside! And I think hanging them in an entrance-way would be perfect so that everyone entering your home could experience a spot of spring cheer! Is there a certain type of paper that is best for this project, Angie?

Angie, you always find the best vintage graphics and I love how you’ve used them in this fabulous project. I’ve really enjoyed checking out all the amazing bloggers on #BestofDIY. Can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done in putting this together.
